Arlesey leave Barton with all three points

Arlesey Town recorded back to back league wins this week to haul themselves away from the foot of the Southern League Division One Central.

Christian Tavernier followed up a weekend hat-trick with the winning goal on Tuesday as Arlesey returned from their Bedfordshire derby with Barton Rovers with a 2-1 victory.

It was particularly pleasing as the Blues successfully came from a goal behind. The first half looked to be finishing goalless before Kevin Kilroy converted a free kick in time added on to give Rovers the advantage.

Arlesey equalised midway through the second half when Lewis Wilson scored from a long throw in.

Then with just a minute remaining Wilson turned provider, working the ball into the box and dummying the defender before putting in a great cross and Tavernier bundled it in.

Arlesey are now without a game until a league trip to Ware on November 7.
